Comments.

All (20) specimens of Myrmex chevrolati (Horn) were captured in Lindgren funnel traps in the canopy of trees (mostly in red oak ( Quercus rubra L.)), none in traps in the understory. Adults in the Canadian Museum of Nature collection from TX have been associated with Smilax ( Smilacaceae ) vines.
